What it does
Popl Related Work is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when positioning a POPL paper in the semantics, type-systems, and verification literature — stating per-line technical deltas against the nearest formal systems, covering the PACMPL family and LICS/CAV/CPP/TOPLAS neighbors, citing PACMPL-era papers in journal form, and dblp-verifying every classic before it is attributed to POPL.
Its SKILL.md is about 940 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Research & Science, covering Literature review. It works with C++. The repository describes itself as: Journal-specific Claude Code/Codex skill packs covering mainstream journals — AER, QJE, Nature, Cell, 管理世界, 经济研究 & 200+ more — your fast track to getting published. ｜ 覆盖主流期刊的… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Positioning a POPL paper in the semantics
- Verification literature — stating per-line technical deltas against the nearest formal systems
- Covering the PACMPL family and LICS/CAV/CPP/TOPLAS neighbors
- Citing PACMPL-era papers in journal form
Example prompts
- “/popl-related-work”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bibtex).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Popl Related Work loads about 936 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 88 tokens; SKILL.md has 396 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

POPL Related Work
At POPL the related-work section is part of the proof of novelty: reviewers are specialists who know the three closest systems, and the section must say — precisely — what your formalism can do that each of them cannot, or what assumption of theirs you discharge. Venue-form facts below were checked 2026-07-08.
Delta sentences, not tours
Weak: "Much work has studied gradual typing [1-9]." Strong: each nearest neighbor gets a sentence with a technical object in it —
- "[X]'s soundness needs whole-program compilation; our Theorem 5 holds under separate compilation because the logical relation is defined on open terms."
- "Our rules coincide with [Y] on the pure fragment (Prop. 2) and diverge exactly at effect handlers, which [Y] does not treat."
If you cannot write the delta sentence, you have not finished reading the neighbor
paper — or the delta does not exist, which is a popl-topic-selection conversation.
The neighborhood map
| Where the closest work lives | Typical relationship to your POPL paper |
|---|---|
| POPL / PACMPL Issue POPL | The direct predecessors; deltas must be theorem-level |
| ICFP, OOPSLA, PLDI (same PACMPL journal) | Same idea family, different evidence culture — compare formal content, not venue prestige |
| LICS, CSL, FSCD | The logic-side siblings; cite them for the semantic foundations you build on |
| CAV, TACAS, CPP, ITP | Verification tools and mechanization techniques; CPP is co-located with POPL itself |
| TOPLAS, JFP, LMCS | Journal-length versions of conference lines — cite the mature statement when one exists |
| ESOP, APLAS | The European/Asian PL circuit; recent near-neighbors often debut here |
Coverage duty is highest for the last two POPL/PACMPL cycles: a 2026 paper on your exact judgment form, missed, reads as either carelessness or concealment under full double-blind.

Cite the PACMPL era correctly
Since POPL joined PACMPL, "a POPL 2018 paper" is bibliographically a journal article. Get the form right before reviewers do:
@article{RustBelt2018,
author = {Jung, Ralf and Jourdan, Jacques-Henri and
Krebbers, Robbert and Dreyer, Derek},
title = {RustBelt: Securing the Foundations of the Rust Programming Language},
journal = {Proc. ACM Program. Lang.},
volume = {2},
number = {POPL},
pages = {66:1--66:34},
year = {2018}
}Volume anchors verified on the ACM DL: Vol 2 = POPL 2018, Vol 7 = POPL 2023, Vol 10 = POPL 2026.
Verify before attributing
PL folklore misfiles its classics. Check dblp before writing "at POPL": separation
logic's canonical paper (Reynolds 2002) is LICS, not POPL; Milner's type
polymorphism paper is JCSS 1978; "Theorems for Free!" is FPCA 1989. Genuine
POPL landmarks that are safe to cite as POPL — each dblp/ACM-DL verified
2026-07-08 — include Cousot & Cousot 1977 (abstract interpretation), Damas & Milner
1982, Necula 1997 (proof-carrying code), Leroy 2006 (certified compilation), and
Jung et al. 2015 (Iris). See resources/exemplars/library.md.
